Hi, here is a basic summary of what we did in a lab; there were 3 reactions: The procedure: Reaction 1: Solid sodium hydroxide dissolves in water to form an aqueous solution of ions. NaOH(s)-> Na+(aq) + OH-(aq) ΔH1=-34.121kJ Reaction 2: Solid sodium hydroxide reacts with an aqueous solution of HCl to form water and an aqueous solution of sodium chloride. NaOH(s) + H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) -> H2O + Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) ΔH2=-83.602kJ Reaction 3: An aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide reacts with an aqueous solution of HCl to form water an an aqueous solution of sodium chloride. H+(aq) + OH-(aq) + Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) -> H2O + Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) ΔH3= -50.2kJ The ΔH values were calculated by dividing the heat gained by the number of moles (each reaction had 0.05moles of NaOH) The problem: Net ionic equations for reaction 2 & 3: 2: NaOH(s) + H+(aq) -> H2O + Na+(aq) 3: H+(aq) + OH-(aq) -> H2O i) In reaction 1, ΔH1 represents the heat evolved as solid NaOH dissolves. Look at the net ionic equations for reactions 2 and 3 and make similar statements as to what ΔH2 and ΔH3 represent. ii) Compare ΔH2 with (ΔH1 + ΔH3). Explain in sentences the similarity between these two values by using your answer to #5 above. Attempt at answering: i) Firstly, ΔH2 represents the heat evolved as the hydrogen ion displaces the sodium ion, creating a single displacement reaction. ΔH3 represents the heat evolved as the hydrogen and hydroxide ion form water via a neutralization reaction. ii) ΔH2 is equal to (or supposed to be, this is a source of error while calculating) (ΔH1 + ΔH3). The similarity between these two values is that .. (this is where I get confused!)

Answer:
Mass = 15.20 g of KCl
Explanation:
The balance chemical equation for the decomposition of KClO₃ is as follow;
2 KClO₃ = 2 KCl + 3 O₂
Step 1: Calculate moles of KClO₃ as;
Moles = Mass / M/Mass
Moles = 25.0 g / 122.55 g/mol
Moles = 0.204 moles
Step 2: Find moles of KCl as;
According to equation,
2 moles of KClO₃ produces = 2 moles of KCl
So,
0.204 moles of KClO₃ will produce = X moles of KCl
Solving for X,
X = 2 mol × 0.204 mol / 2 mol
X = 0.204 mol of KCl
Step 3: Calculate mass of KCl as,
Mass = Moles × M.Mass
Mass = 0.204 mol × 74.55 g/mol
Mass = 15.20 g of KCl
